Vinyl plays with occasional light-crackles (play-graded). Cover looks great; very light scuffing and a few discoloration spots (front/back); area of surface abrasion on front at top left. More noticeable discoloration spots on back. Inner-sleeve is original (Dot info.). Spine is easy-to-read with mild wear. Minor shelf-wear along top/bottom-edge and corners. Opening is crisp with signs of light use. (Not a cut-out.)
A Swingin' Safari is a 1962 instrumental composed by Bert Kaempfert, using his alias, Bernd Bertie. The song features a distinctive main theme played on the piccolo as substitute for the traditional tin whistle, and a trumpet solo by Manfred "Fred" Moch. The prominent bass line is by Ladi Geisler. Kaempfert's recording of the song did not reach the charts, but a near-simultaneous cover by Billy Vaughn reached No. 13 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and No. 5 on the Easy Listening chart.
